Here's the challenge, do they try to capitalize on the Doom nerds (like me) who will spend $3K for "the head" used (not like me), or will they actually try to be competitive in the market with their reissues.

They've announced pricing:

100s/200s $3,199
beta lead/bass $799

Not cheap. Those betas look pretty tempting though.

Hmmm, a good start with the Beta Lead. We will see spec wise where it stacks up against boutique copies like From Hillbish Design.
